DigiMusic2019

We are guessing that you probably play video games and watch movies, but did you know that British Columbia is home to some of the world’s most well-known video game, animation and visual effects companies employing thousands of people with all types of different skill-sets and talents? Have you ever thought that a career in creative tech might be something you’re interested in?

DigiMusic 2019 was a competition that gives you a small taste of what it’s like to combine creativity and technology, as we challenge you to compose music for one or more short clips of video games and animated movies that are being created right here in BC. We accepted entries from individual composers (students) as well as entries from groups of up to four composers working together. The competition ran from April 2-May 14, 2019 after which an expert panel of digital media and music industry experts assessed the entries received, and awarded a range of prizes to both composers and their schools.
